Core-Monitor

Not much to disclose, so this is short

The Mac App Store edition of Core-Monitor has no account system, no analytics, and no advertising code. It reads system status to draw its own interface, and that reading stays on your Mac.

Effective April 20, 2026. Applies to the Mac App Store edition of Core-Monitor.

Apple listing: apps.apple.com/us/app/core-monitor/id6762558526

What the app reads, locally

  • CPU activity and per-core load
  • Memory usage and pressure
  • Battery and power-source status
  • Thermal state and warning level
  • Network throughput
  • Startup disk usage
  • Uptime and load averages
  • Your location, only if you enable Live Weather

What never happens

  • No account creation or sign-in
  • No analytics or telemetry of any kind
  • No advertising code
  • No profile built about you, locally or remotely
  • No personal data on a Core-Monitor server, because there is no Core-Monitor server

Location is explicitly opt-in

Live Weather is off by default. The app requests location only after you turn on Enable Live Weather in Settings. It never asks for camera, microphone, contacts, photos, accessibility, input monitoring, automation, or full disk access.

WeatherKit, only while enabled

While Live Weather is enabled, the app sends the device location to Apple WeatherKit and receives weather data for that location. The Core-Monitor developer does not receive it. Core-Monitor’s own source makes no other network requests; macOS and App Store components may independently contact Apple services.

Revoke any time

Turn Live Weather off in the app, or withdraw location access in macOS System Settings. Turning it off stops Core-Monitor’s weather requests. Everything else keeps working either way.
